As if Dragon Quest VII hadn't been delayed and messed with enough, recently Enix's Yuji Horii posted three messages on his personal message board expressing his discontent about recently spoilers in a Japanese magazine about Dragon Quest VII. Originally Horii posted that Dragon Quest VII might be delayed as a result of those issues, but the next day Enix released an announcement saying Dragon Quest VII was still on track for an early 2000 release, and that the problems would be worked out internally.

Hopefully this is true and the long-delayed game will finally make it to a release on time (well, relatively that is). Still no news on an American release, but it will almost certainly make it here sometime next year or early 2001, unless Enix of America manages to delay the game as much as their Japanese counterparts...
